Season the chicken thighs and grill them over medium-high heat until well browned, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the cotija cheese, queso fresco, salsa verde and cumin for a final minute.

Warm the refried beans separately.

Let the chicken simmer for about 9 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Serve hot over the refried beans, garnished with fresh herbs.
